BOLD EXPERIMENT.
This is no ordinary female college
There is nothing like it either north OF
south. Mississippi has made a new de-
parture-a bold experiment. Wise heads
ave devised new methods for these new
lines. Everything is business now, and
we must keep up with it. The girls useo

aides of elegant leisure-lades fit to be
wives and mothers, and nothing else; but
low the wife and the mother must be
something else. She must be helpmate.

that is, she must help meet the expenses.

Gus Inquiry, "What shall we do with our
daughters They are willing, they are
capable, but what can they do 2'' The
chief aim and end of this institution is to
answer this question. to solve this problem,
and if it proves success, then Mississippi
will deserve the praise.
This college is not YET two years olu, but
it is, so far, a grand success. Nobody
doubts it now. The nation is looking at il
with increased interest. Committees from
northern States have visited it and are
still visiting. DR.. Mayo of Boston was
there a few days ago to see the actual
practical working of the institution. and
was filled with admiration. These girls are
happily mingling work with study. In one
department they are cutting and fitting
dresses and other garments in the most
approved methods. Ia another the wash
ing and ironing are going on in laundry
that is operated by steam. The girls are
trained to cook, but do not do the cooking
but they wash the dishes and set the
tables, and do all the homework. Thew do
not prepare the garden, but they plant if

There have been within the last few

Infusion of some chemical gave the face
d most life-like appearance. A favorite
funeral gown is the modified Greek dress,
such as Mary Anderson, M ISIS EaStlake
aud Ellen Terry have been seen in. These
outfits are made without trimming, posi-
by glrdle or braided cape bslng used as

color.
Not two years ago the wife of a rich
young west slider was dressed in fac

oeen very brief, and when "She final sum-

MODELLING IN CLAY.
In another department the girls were
modelling in clay, aud their handiwork
was seen in vases and urns and statuary.
Here, too, they were painting on china
aud queensware. Type writing is taught,
and is much more easily learned than is
music upon the piano. The president g
secretary is one of his pupils, and she rap
idly answers his numerous correspondents
upon the caligraph. Photography is es-
pecially taught. and many of the advanced
pupils can easily record 120 words in a
minute. Two of them recorded every
word of Sam jones' sermon, and they
were sent broadcast all over the land
